The mean proportion of a2b3\frac{a^2}{b^3}b3a2​​ and  9b24a3\frac{9b^2}{4a^3}4a39b2​​ is _______.
Question

The mean proportion of a2b3\frac{a^2}{b^3}​ and  9b24a3\frac{9b^2}{4a^3}​ is _______.

A.

94ab\frac{9}{4\sqrt{ab}}​​

B.

32ab\frac{3}{2\sqrt{ab}}​​

C.

32(ab)\frac{3}{2(ab)}​​

D.

94(ab)\frac{9}{4(ab)}​​

Correct option is B

Given:

-Two quantities: a2b3 and 9b24a3\frac{a^2}{b^3}\ and\ \frac{9b^2}{4a^3} ​​

Formula Used:

- Mean proportion between two numbers x and y is given by: √(x × y)

Solution:

Mean proportion 

(a2b3×9b24a3) =(a29b2b34a3) =(9a2b24a3b3) =(941ab) =321ab =32ab\sqrt{\left(\frac{a^2}{b^3} \times \frac{9b^2}{4a^3}\right)} \\\ \\= \sqrt{\left(\frac{a^2 \cdot 9b^2}{b^3 \cdot 4a^3}\right)} \\\ \\= \sqrt{\left(\frac{9a^2b^2}{4a^3b^3}\right)} \\\ \\= \sqrt{\left(\frac{9}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{ab}\right)} \\\ \\= \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{ab}} \\\ \\= \frac{3}{2\sqrt{ab}}​​
